Imagine landing in the Chinese mainland after months abroad, only to face a 14-day quarantine. That’s exactly what one student experienced returning to Qingdao—but his story isn’t about fear. It’s about frontline heroes in hazmat suits 🦠, 150+ daily meals 🍱, and unexpected kindness.
‘We thought we’d be treated like walking viruses,’ the student admits in his vlog. Instead, he found hotel staff working 24/7 to keep quarantined guests safe. Cleaning crews in bulky PPE, caterers hauling meal carts, and health checks at sunrise—all while battling pandemic burnout.
‘They’d ask, ‘Need extra towels? How’s the Wi-Fi?’ like it was just another day,’ he recalls. By Day 14, the students left handwritten thank-you notes. Meanwhile, the hotel team geared up for the next group—no applause, just determination.
This isn’t a Marvel movie, but these everyday heroes? Total Avengers energy 💥. Their grind shows how China’s COVID response isn’t just policies—it’s people.
